Zigzag

Progress has been slow lately. But one of the things I like about quilting is that even a little progress now and then adds up, and eventually you get a finished quilt. Unlike some other activities, like, say gardening, where letting things go for awhile means needing to start over.

On this lap quilt, I wanted to use up some fabrics in colors I don't often use. I had quite a chunk of the yellow print and paired it with various red prints. That print also came in a blue colorway, with splashes of purple and green. I used it as the main fabric in 2 different quilts, and still have a little left over.

The back used leftover pieces from the front plus a large piece of gold ombre fabric.
